Thread: Landy Lovers bugging my Wife

I get hassled all the time when I drive the Series III. It was really getting on my nerves when Tony was away, as I drove it for 6 weeks. Whenever I pulled up anywhere, especially when filling up, or having just parked in a car park, the III seems to attract blokes like flies. I remember a few years ago I used to work at Parramatta & used to drive the III to work. Didn't finish work until 8pm. After one shift, I was sitting at a set of traffic lights, & a bloke jumped out of another car he was a passenger in & leapt in the back of the Series! (I didn't have the top on). He was rabbiting on & on, the lights changed so off we went! (Heavy traffic in Parramatta even at that hour!) He kept going on & on about the Landie & kept insisting I go to a party with him! Needless to say, I politely refused.

I also have the same problem driving my brother's Alfa Romeo. It's a 1974 Giulia - gorgeous little sports car that goes like the wind! Seems to have the same effect. Lost count of the blokes who drool all over it & the offers I've had from blokes who want to buy it!


So yea, it gets pretty damn annoying!

My better half drives our 130 now and then.
It brings a big smile to my face when she pulls up or drives past in it - I feel proud of her!!!!!

What a woman!

Yep, my missus does not mind much. She picked the Fender. No different to when people approach me. Always up for a chat, but I do tell the whole truth not just blinded fantasy. People need to know the pros and cons, better than someone buying one and spending the next 6 months whinging about it here.

Id sooner get the finger before I get a friendly chat from the locals. Can you say GHeTto!?

I reckon you could be riight. Landie Carma. Doesn't happen in the Patrol.
